Clothing is a big time business. Whiles on campus, you may spot some people who may be just interested in clothes and sneakers. Now most of these people spend more on just clothing. And they like to follow the latest fashion trends.

Also, there is a saying that ladies are big spenders. Well, it might be true though, as most times college ladies are influenced by their mentors on Instagram to wear what is new. Most of these ladies are also slay queens on social media so you can see how to maximize on this opportunity.

But how do I get the clothes to buy?

You can choose to buy your clothes online at a very cheaper rate. Most chinese websites provide the price of clothes at a low rate. These methods have been used by big companies in Ghana and they are making profits. You can read below on how to find and shop from these websites with low prices.

Also, you can decide to go to second hand boutiques. Mostly these clothes are second hand from European countries and America. You can select the quality ones and wash them properly. After which you can sell with some prices added to it.

2. Watches

With no doubt, watches are really big in the markets. Let me say I knew some people in University of Ghana who followed my advice and started selling watches. What I told them to do was buy them at a lower rates and sell them high. And guess what, they are really making money out of this. They are now selling premium watches for 200 cedis to big men at high offices.

But the truth is the watches are less than 70 cedis. Now the person selling it gets to make a profits.

These watches might be cheap but they look expensive. And you wont believe the prices.

3. Sports Equipment

Well, I have done this kind of business before but I wasn’t in the college. I sold in the community. And if it can work in the community, why can’t it work in college? I was selling basketball knee guards and jerseys. And I was making some money back then.

Before you think about starting this business; Kindly think about the type of popular sports in your college or community. Once you identify it, you can go ahead and get the sports equipment. Read how to buy sports equipment at cheap rates.

After acquiring the printer, it is time to advertise and tell your friends about your new venture. And offer them some low price. As time goes by, you may multiply the money you invested and can use that profit to buy another printer or do something profitable.

5. Photography

What more do I have to say about photography? Don’t you see the high demand of photographers in Ghana nowadays? Just like sometime back there was rise in the Ghanaian music industry. Everyone wanted to make music.

Photography is now a hot cake. The problem might be acquiring that powerful DSLR Camera. If you want quality one, it will really cost. But you can search online and find the cheap ones.
